Determinants of Maternal and Infant Omega-3 Status at 3 Months Postpartum: Findings from the APrON Longitudinal Cohort Study.

Maternal total dietary intake and pre-pregnancy BMI are independently associated with their serum fatty acid status during lactation, while maternal diet, milk fatty acid composition, and lactation status are important determinants of infant n-3 LCPUFAs fatty acid status. Future research should investigate the impact of these differences in fatty acid status on infant health outcomes.

Drivers of stunting and wasting across serial cross-sectional household surveys of children under 2 years of age in Pakistan: potential contribution of ecological factors.

Apart from recognized multifactorial drivers of stunting and wasting among children such as poverty, food insecurity and maternal undernutrition, our analysis suggest the potential independent association with climatic factors such as heat and excess precipitation over time. These findings underscore the need for further research and potential integration of climatic mitigation and adaptation with nutrition response strategies.

Investigating eating architecture and the impact of the precision of recorded eating time: a cross-sectional study.

Precise timing improves the estimation of eating architecture. Differences in estimation will affect descriptions of children's eating habits and possibly dietary guidance. However, consistent directional associations across timing methods, suggest that broad times could provide a pragmatic method for investigating eating architecture associations in large samples.

Clonal Hematopoiesis of Indeterminate Potential in Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis.

Our findings underscore a connection between IBD and CHIP pathophysiology. Patients with IBD and CHIP had unique risk profiles, especially among older UC patients and younger CD patients. These findings suggest distinct evolutionary pathways for CHIP in IBD and necessitate awareness among IBD providers and hematologists to identify patients potentially at risk for CHIP-related complications including malignancy, cardiovascular disease, and acceleration of their inflammatory disease.

Wound Healing After Vaginal Delivery, Episiotomy, and Cesarean Section Delivery Among Women With IBD: Results From the PIANO Registry.

Episiotomy was a common occurrence in patients with IBD. Immunomodulator, but not biologic, use was found to be associated with delayed wound healing. This association could reflect a direct medication effect on episiotomy wound healing or inadequate treatment of underlying active disease prior to delivery. Vaginal tears were also common but delayed wound healing was not associated with IBD therapy. C-section occurred at high rates, particularly in Crohn's disease patients, with no reported delays in postpartum wound healing.

hsa_circ_0015388 Reduces Macrophage Derived Reactive Oxygen Species in Crohn's Disease.

A comprehensive analysis of circRNA expression revealed that 31 circRNAs were dysregulated in the CD group. Hsa_circ_0015388 is expressed in macrophages and negatively regulates ROS function inhibiting the TNFSF10 pathway. This study first revealed that hsa_circ_0015388 plays a role in the pathogenesis of CD by suppressing ROS production in macrophages.

Deconditioning in quiescent Crohn's Disease patients with heightened fatigue perception.

CD self-reported increased fatigue perception and exhibited a slower rate of post-exercise PCr resynthesis compared to HV. This occurred independently of changes in body composition, muscle strength and fatigueability. IBD fatigue may be linked to peripheral muscle deconditioning and lower gmCBF during submaximal exercise.

Improvement in Serum Eosinophilia is Observed in Clinical Responders to Ustekinumab but not Adalimumab in Inflammatory Bowel Disease.

Eosinophil reduction was identified as a marker for early response to ustekinumab in both UC and CD, but not adalimumab. No difference was observed among UC patients treated with vedolizumab either. Targeting the IL-12/IL-23 pathway may be more effective in managing eosinophil-associated inflammation in IBD.
